A New Trend in Healthcare

Continually rising out of pocket healthcare costs and shrinking third party coverage from insurers are driving consumers to find economical and practical ways to obtain needed medical procedures. Medical Tourism is a relatively newer travel category but is poised to grow at a CAGR of 21.6% through 2034, suggesting increasing and sustained demand for healthcare services abroad.

Medical Tourism covers both elective and non-elective procedures, as well as dental and cosmetic services and healthcare travelers have enjoyed both significant savings as well as localized experiences when abroad. The benefits of Medical Tourism are something to consider but traveling for medical reasons adds layers of complexity to the journey and can end up being a stressful experience if not fully prepared. Some challenges to consider during medical travel are: 

  • Organizing and accessing important medical and travel documents 
  • Understanding local healthcare regulations and resources
  • Keeping track of appointments and facility locations

Medical travel can also have complicated itineraries and procedures may require follow up, potentially adding another facet of stress. Using mobile technology, healthcare travelers heading abroad for procedures can easily plan and organize trips, ensuring every detail is checked, covered and completed.
